Abstract
The concept of state property nowadays is similar to Guan Wu (Official Objects) in traditional times. Law in both modern times and Qing Dynasty distinguish private property from state property/Guan Wu. Generally speaking, there were two principles in the Great Qing Code: focus on Guan Wu; punishing inside job severely. Besides, the Code had special rules to treat special Guan Wu and Za Fan. There are similar principles in Criminal Law nowadays, but the latest judicial interpretation has made things different. State property/Guan Wu has no need to be more sacred than private property, and all kinds of property has no need to be sacred. Inside job is more serious than ordinary theft. The Great Qing Code is imperfect, but it could provide reference for nowadays.
